  • Generative Convergence #2 – Ghosts

    Generative Convergence #2 – Ghosts

    This is a companion to the last image, the Dirac Delta Function is moved over to the right and some of the intensity parameters have been punched up a little.  These are really starting to resemble the transition energies from atomic orbitals.  I’m still on track to add another level of complexity before I start…

  • Generative convergence #1 – Shadows

    Generative convergence #1 – Shadows

    I wasn’t aiming for something this sparse, or this kind of vertical pattern, but it turned out like a more refined version of some of my other experiments.  This method is interpolating a function that resembles a Dirac delta function centered at 1/2, the other lines are reflections of that central spike.

    New Technique – Iterated function system interpolation functions

    I’m working on a technique to create heavy textured straight brush strokes.  There are a number of abstract paintings using textures I’d like to reproduce.  I’m definitely a way off, but I’m liking some of the results so far. What separates these from the fractals I’ve generated in the past is that they have a…

  • All filled in – Animated Generative circles #2

    All filled in – Animated Generative circles #2

    The stills don’t have anywhere near the punch that the ring rendering does, but the nebulous billowy cloud like effect is nice. I’m using the same code to pick the colors, just replacing stroke with fill. I’ll have to keep this in my back pocket and see if there is something I can pull this…

  • Technique work

    Technique work

    I can’t say I’m a huge fan of these, but I’m playing around with colors and the rendering.  Right now they just seem pretty  for pretty’s sake.  I think I’m waiting around for inspiration on how to put these to good use.  These are generative and then just selected to save as an image.  Enjoy!…

  • Another generative geometric fractal experiment

    I’ve got to take a break from the stripey stuff for a little while.  This is circling back to the circles.  I’ve taken the mapping I’ve been using from the inside of a sphere to the set of all circles, lines and points on the plane and combined them.  This is what I was aiming…

  • Supercharged performance

    Supercharged performance

    I was going back through some of my old posts and making sure the javascript still works, and I loaded up the three.js particle system test code I put up a while back. Instead of being broken, it was even faster in chrome than when i wrote it. I was surprised at how much of…

  • Fractal Drawing Tool – Users Guide

    Fractal Drawing Tool – Users Guide

    Fractal Designer I’m trying to put together some instructions and add some context for the tool I’ve been using to create the fractal images on the site. I’ve made some updates to the usability and features, adding the ability to upload an image to imgur. This is only the second rev, and the first of…

  • Big day tomorrow.

    Big day tomorrow.

    Tomorrow morning I’m doing a tough mudder. It’s going to be fun and hard, and I’m planning to have a great time. I just thought I’d put up an image in somewhat nervous anticipation of the race. Good luck to all the mudders! Related Images:
